HL Deb 18 June 1986 vol 476 c1026WA
Lord Kennet

asked Her Majesty's Government:

Whether it is only the fact that Fylingdales was in existence before 1972 that saves it from violating the ABM Treaty.

Baroness Young

We are confident that the existence and modernisation of the early warning installation at RAF Fylingdales are in full conformity with US obligations under the ABM Treaty.
